Or Balanced Athlete in Renton. I highly suggest a great running bra too. Or you risk serious chaffing. The Moving Comfort brand is expensive, but by far the best out there.

Suggestions on where to locally donate used running and work-out shoes?
Alexander L. replied:
Fleet Feet Proctor has a box. I am planning on dropping some off tonight.

Quinn O. replied:
The Seattle Mountain Running Group on FB had a post the other day: "Donation request - a friend of ours works with disabled teenagers and young adults, she's a volunteer running coach at the Seattle special Olympics. She asked recently if I had any unused running gear as a lot of these kids come from low income families and have little or no running gear. Their first meet is on April 25th so if you have anything you want to donate send me a PM and I'll send you my address (ballard) or I'll be at the Yakima skyline race so you pass stuff to me there." If interested or have questions you can msg him, search their group, Jon Lund. Or let me know. I was planning on sending a few Asics tops and pair of newish Saucony's sometime this week.
